Right now, I’m playing the early access version of Baldurs Gate 3. I’m getting ready to put it down (frustrated: BG3 has the potential to be good, but without controller support, I’m getting really frustrated with the UI. ) and switch to Yakuza Like a Dragon.

What are you playing now and what are you looking forward to playing next?

Mostly point and click adventures. Harvey's New Eyes is my favorite among those I've finished for now

Dark Souls 2 with a very nice lighting mod. It's called DS2LightingEngine SOFTS. I played DS1 and DS3 but could never get into DS2, partly owing to the visuals which I really didn't like. Now it looks cool and I'm getting a few deaths in here and there on the deck.

I've been playing a lot of Tape to Tape Hockey, it's a hockey rogue lite in early access, tons of fun. Other than that, I'm slowly working my way through Octopatg 1 and waiting for AEW Fight Forever at the end of the month.

I've been emulating Mario Party Superstars and Mario Kart 8. Yuzu's multiplayer is amazing!

What do you like about Yuzu multiplayer?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I love bloodstained, personally. Runs super well and the game is just a perfect fit for the deck.

It’s also amazing for emulation! Just about any traditional-controller game works like a charm. I’m going back and revisiting so many of the old GameCube and gameboy games

I'm using it almost exclusively during commuting between my hometown and my girlfriend's current city (nearly 4h) for which the deck is an absolute godsent

Played through the Sherlock Holmes games and now am playing the Ace Attorney games (for which the Deck is probably a bit overpowered but so what).

Not a huge fan of fast-paced games on the deck since I have a pretty good PC at home with a 144hz 1440p monitor which I really miss with games like Else Ring or (especially) Rocket League

I've recently started working my way through the Telltale Games and Don't Nod back catalogues. Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People is great fun, and Life Is Strange Before The Storm plays really well too. :)

I got Drakenguard 3 running on rpcs3 recently so I've mainly been playing that. Also been playing Pokemon infinite fusion.

I tend to prefer games that aren't as heavy on the deck and stuff like cyberpunk and Elden ring better on my main rig.

Me! Currently playing Diablo 4, but I just picked up MCC on sale. Love this thing!

I'm trying to learn Magic the Gathering on the steam deck, but damn I'm getting my butt kicked. If anyone knows how to learn it I'm all ears.

I have rainworld on my list to play next, for now I'm mostly on Tunic.

Octopath travelers 2 and hifi rush.

My Steam Deck is mostly an indie/retro machine that I play while I'm vegging out in bed/on the couch at the end of the day. Lots of PS1 games and whatnot

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

Mostly play indie top-down retro stuff like Core Keeper, but the occasional bout of Halo MCC/Infinite, RDR2, Wasteland 3, and a few others.

If the new Battlebit release anti-cheat functions properly under Proton then I'll be picking that up.

Love the Steam Deck. I’m able to play so much more than I did before. Currently playing Persona 5 Royal and I’m really enjoying it. I’ll be at it for a while so I don’t know what’s next. Maybe Octopath Traveler 2 or Persona 4 Golden.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm playing Octopath Traveler, Not sure what I'll play after. I've got tons in my back catalog.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I like to dock the Steam Deck for couch coop. Go to games include Overcooked, Boomerang Fu and Lovers in a Dangerous Space Time.

SteamDeck is GREAT for light roguelikes. They are often designed with controller in mind and are light on the battery.

I've been playing

  • Dead Cells
  • Hades
  • Slay the Spire
  • Skul
  • Undermine
  • Vampire Survivors

All great on Deck
